On the same day the Duchess of Cambridge went into labour it was claimed Peter Andre's 23-year-old girlfriend is pregnant.

Peter has made no secret of his love for Emily MacDonagh and it was this public display of affection at the Nordoff Robbins Silver Clef Awards at the London Hilton in June which hinted at the graduate's condition.

As pop star Pete and his student girlfriend arrived at the event they happily posed on the red carpet for awaiting photographers.

But as Pete tenderly touched Emily's stomach while she lovingly looked into his eyes he suggested the loved-up couple may be expecting a new addition to their lives.

3am understands Emily is expecting her first child with the former pop star.

And Emily has definitely taken a strong liking to her beau with her recently admitting her family were just as fond of the reality star as she is.

Speaking on Peter Andre: My Life, she said: "He's like a member of our family and he has been for a long time.

"For my family to love him is so, so important, and it wasn't even an effort, they did from the very start.

"I hope his family like me and I know he feels the same way, as what your family think is so important."

And Peter also admitted he's impressed with the way she is with his two children Princess and Junior from his former relationship with Katie Price.

He said: "What impresses me the absolute most is the way she is with the kids."

We have contacted a representative for Peter for comment.
